技术公司是否在教学生如何在创新方面发挥作用？

在我儿子的高中的爸爸俱乐部通常会举行一次很好的月度会议，会有很多碳水化合物，饮料和一个好的演讲者。
但是，当我听说技术总监要介绍为什么他们要将图书馆（又名信息共享）转换为“创新共享”时，就像我这个年龄的很多爸爸一样，我抓住了我的干草叉和火炬然后走了
市中心，决心保存书籍。
但是我所听到的让我暂停并考虑一下我们为明天的年轻人做准备的时间。
正如许多辩论一样，辩论开始于钱的提供：特别是为改善高中技术（在美国，14-18岁的年轻人的高中）提供技术。
我们的高中（Brophy College Prep）已经为12年前的学生采用了平板电脑的原理，多年来逐渐演变为iPad计划。
因此，学校对技术的任何升级都不仅仅是简单地用技术武装学生。
通过他们的智能手机，我们的大多数孩子都会将整个百科全书的内容放在口袋里（对于年轻读者来说，想想维基百科在一套书中打印出来），这样学校就可以花更少的时间让学生记住事实，
更多的时间教他们如何实际使用知识。
一位前Brophy学生的倡议让学校教师思考如何超越教学如何使用技术并激发学生思考可以使用什么技术。
Mick Ebeling是Not Impossible Labs的创始人，他和他的公司参与了一些非常令人惊叹的人道工作（例如世界上第一个为苏丹的截肢者提供服务的世界上第一个3D打印假肢实验室项目丹尼尔 - 请参阅此处的视频）。
或者以SOCCKET为例：The Energy-Harnessing Soccer Ball。
由一群年轻人开发的Soccket球包含一个充电发生器和一个电池，这样30分钟的游戏能够产生足够的能量为LED灯供电三小时，这对全世界的发展中国家来说都是一个福音。
这项技术很棒，但年轻人正在使用的技术非常棒。
那么，我们如何在帮助我们的年轻人不仅仅是技术用户成为使用技术的创新者方面发挥作用呢？
英特尔认真对待这一角色 - Brophy学生在参加英特尔国际科学与工程博览会时首次了解了“不可能实验室”。
事实上，我的小儿子在周末为IEEE高中科学与研究所完成了他的科学展览项目。
5月在凤凰城举办的工程邀请赛活动，该活动涉及英特尔当地的大量参与。
在安森美半导体，我们做了一点 - 几个周末之前，我的同事科尔和我周六支持安富利科技游戏，这是一系列有趣，有竞争力的活动，以鼓励当地大学生的创新和技能。
在Lego FIRST机器人活动中，我也有几位同事是小学的积极导师。
所以我的问题是，科技公司在鼓励年轻人的创新艺术和技巧方面需要扮演什么角色？
这是一项最好留给学校系统的任务，还是技术公司在财务和资源方面都应该是积极的参与者？

以下为原文

The Dads Club at my son’s high school usually puts on a good monthly meeting, with lots of carbohydrates, beverages and a good speaker. But when I heard that the Technology Director was going to present on why they were going to convert the library (a.k.a. the Information Commons) to an “Innovation Commons”, like a lot of dads my age I grabbed my pitchfork and torch and heading off downtown, determined to save the books. But what I heard caused me to pause and consider for a moment how we prepare our young people for tomorrow.
The debate was started, as are many debates, by the availability of money: specifically a grant to improve technology in High Schools (in the US, High School for young people aged 14-18). Our High School (Brophy College Prep) had adopted the principle of tablet computers for students over 12 years ago, gradually evolving to an iPad program over the years. Therefore, any upgrade to technology in the school had to go beyond simply ARMing students with technology. With their smart phones, most of our kids carry the content of an entire encyclopedia set in their pockets (for younger readers, think of Wikipedia printed out in a set of books) so schools can afford to spend less time on having students memorize facts, and more time on teaching them how to actually use knowledge.
An initiative by a former Brophy student got the school faculty thinking about how to go beyond teaching how to use technology and to stimulate students to think about what technology can be used for. Mick Ebeling is the founder of Not Impossible Labs and he and his company have engaged in some really amazing humanitarian work (such as Project Daniel, the world's first 3D printing prosthetic lab, which serves amputees in Sudan – see the video HERE). Or take the case of SOCCKET: The Energy-Harnessing Soccer Ball. Developed by a group of young people, the Soccket ball contains a charging generator and a battery so that 30 minutes of play generates enough energy to power an LED lamp for three hours, a boon in developing countries around the world.
The technology is great, but it is what young people are doing with the technology that is magnificent.
So how do we play a part in helping our young people go beyond being simply users of technology to being innovators who use technology? Intel takes their role in this seriously – Brophy students first learned about Not Impossible Labs while participating at Intel’s International Science and Engineering Fair. Indeed my youngest son spent the weekend polishing up his science fair project for the IEEE High School Science & Engineering Invitational event in Phoenix in May which has a large local Intel involvement.
Here at ON Semiconductor we do our bit - a couple of weekends ago, my colleague Cole and I spent Saturday supporting Avnet’s Tech Games, a series of fun, competitive events to encourage innovation and skill in local college and university students. I also have several colleagues who are active mentors in Elementary schools in the Lego FIRST robotics events.

So my question is, what role do technology companies need to play in encouraging the art and skill of innovation in our young people? Is it a task best left to the school system or should technology companies be active participants both in terms of finance and resources?
